- Thematic Component: 3. Facilitation of Trade
From July 19 to 21, 2022, the Border Management Programme in Central Asia organised a technical assistance mission, in the form of a meeting on analysis of the current customs legislation in the transit area, gathering experts from the EU Member States and Tajik national experts on the development of a national transit declaration/control system. The mission assisted the Tajikistan Customs Administration with reviewing existing national transit systems, in applying the Transit Internationaux Routier (TIR) Convention, identifying gaps in legislation and relevant administrative instructions on transit regimes, and developing recommendations for further improvement. This mission continues a series of national activities in the region – similar workshops were implemented in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan in 2021 and Kyrgyzstan in March 2022.
